Demi Moore Opens Up About Abandonment Issues In Harper’s Bazaar

“If I were to answer it just kind of bold-faced, I would say what scares me is that I’m going to ultimately find out at the end of my life that I’m really not lovable, that I’m not worthy of being loved. That there’s something fundamentally wrong with me. … I used to think that what scared me was the idea of being abandoned until someone said to me, ‘Only children can be abandoned. Adults can’t be abandoned because we have a choice. Children don’t have a choice.”

&#8211; Demi Moore talks to Harper’s Bazaar about her insecurities just a few months after her split from husband Ashton Kutcher, who allegedly cheated on her at least once. I hate to admit it, but Demi and I share a similar irrational insecurity — the fear of being unworthy or incapable of being loved. I’ve learned to recognize that fear as, ultimately, just a fantasy and have worked on finding ways to cultivate love internally rather than depending on getting it externally. I hope Demi does the same! [Harper’s Bazaar]
